According to MacRumors, the list of supported gestures is as follows:

•Swipe Left: Go back in history (hold Command to open it in a tab)

•Swipe Right: Go forward in history

•Swipe Up: Go to the top of the page

•Swipe Down: Go to the end of the page

•Pinch Together: Zoom out

•Pinch Apart: Zoom in

•Twist Right: Next tab

•Twist Left: Previous tab

Awesome. As Wired pointed out, this implementation may even better than Safari. [Mozilla via Wired]
